What you should know about Zimmermann brake pads

Zimmermann brake pads have a long history. They are produced by the German company Otto Zimmermann GmbH, headquartered in Sinsheim. The firm was founded in 1947. Since that time its products have gained worldwide renown and are sold in 60 countries. The spare parts produced under this brand belong to the premium price segment.

The company implements advanced solutions in the manufacturing of its products. And to demonstrate them to the public, it participates in international exhibitions. For instance, goods of the brand were on show at the Automechanika trade fair 2018 in Frankfurt.

For a long time, the company produced parts intended for factory-installation on vehicles. Today, using its vast experience, it is focused on manufacturing aftermarket parts.

The brand’s range includes parts for all popular car makes. The most popular are the following lines of Zimmermann brake pads:

• Standard: these comply with the specifications of the original equipment. They have an optimal friction coefficient and are silent and wear-resistant. For their production, modern friction compounds consisting of 25 ingredients are used.
• rd:z: these ensure superior braking performance due to the friction compound with the addition of organic fibres. Every time the brakes are engaged, a layer is created between the disc and the pad, which improves the brake pedal feel, and also protects the pads from wear. These parts generate less dust.

It takes the company 2–3 years to develop a new brake pad model. This time allows for the design process and multi-stage testing. A product enters the market only after its high quality has been confirmed. All items are treated by scorching, due to which their running-in time shortens. Also the parts undergo the compressibility test, which allows to check the friction properties of the product in conditions of extremely high temperatures.
